Elementary Mathematical Modeling: Functions and Graphs
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book helps readers develop the quantitative literacy skills and savvy needed to function effectively in society and the workplace. It focuses on "mathematical modeling" and the use of elementary mathematics--e.g., numbers and measurement, algebra, geometry, and data exploration--to investigate real-world problems and questions. It assumes no technology other than the use of graphing calculators, and provides a comprehensive technology support system on an accompanying CD-ROM and web site. Linear Functions and Models. Quadratic Functions and Models. Natural Growth Models. Exponential and Trigonometric Models. Polynomial Models and Linear Systems. Optimization Problems. Bounded Growth Models. For anyone wanting to develop proficiency in mathematical modeling.
